“Nicol of course took care of our cats food, water, and litter needs, but the social time she spent with them was invaluable. One of our cats is very skittish and hides whenever anyone comes over, but Nicole was the first person he would come out to meet and be petted by.”
“Big thank you to Stephanie for watching our two dogs and two cats for the last couple weeks! I could tell from the photos that our crew really liked her. Even my elderly cat who typically hides from everyone was out and taking pets from her! She was thorough, attentive, and very communicative. Stephanie went above and beyond, bringing in packages from outside, filling the birdfeeders so my cats and dogs had entertainment, and turning down the AC and locking up the patio during the extreme heat advisories. Can’t thank her enough!”
“Holly is an excellent pet sitter! She goes above and beyond and sent lots of pics and videos and updates. I didn’t worry at all with her. She won over even our most stubborn kitty, and not just fed them but also spent some time playing with them. I’d definitely recommend Holly!”
“This is our second time booking MIA and, we couldn’t feel happier. She is caring and sweet!! Our cats always look so happy and playful with Mia. Thank you again for being so wonderful!!”
“I can’t thank Andrea enough for helping us out last-minute today so we could take our god daughter to LEGOLAND. I reached out the morning of, she responded quickly and she showed up promptly at the scheduled time—despite me forgetting to provide my unit number and not replying quickly. She was incredibly patient and gracious, even looping back after I finally got in touch. She took our dogs out right away, and when we got home, they were calm, happy, and clearly well cared for. She’s kind, reliable, and so easy to work with. We’re really grateful and will definitely be reaching out again!”
“Tyson has been such a blessing caring for my older pup! We are relocating out of state and will truly miss him. If you want a dependable, caring, trustworthy dog walker, he is your go to. I only hope I can find another one like him in TX.”
“Anne was so great to work with! As a doggie parent it’s always nerve wracking trying to figure out who to trust with your fur baby and I will say that I highly recommend putting your trust in Anne. I had to go out of town on a sudden trip and my dog couldn’t be boarded and everyone else I knew wasn’t available. Anne came to my rescue and provided such good care on her drop ins. She really cares and it shows in her work her.”
“Erica goes above and beyond to ensure the doggos are well taken care of when I was away. She was very flexible to requests made in addition to the original plans.”
About: I have worked in a class 1 setting with a variety of species as a Zoological specialist. I have experience providing habitat/enclosure care, enrichment, medications and a variety of other treatments for many species. I am available most days 7 am - 9 pm, including weekends based on my schedule. For times outside my normal availability please contact me to see if a compromise can be found. I provide my pets with a healthy diet, enrichment and daily experiences to ensure they are living healthy active and fullfilling lives. I believe it is important to give animals a schedule and routine to help with their daily health.
“Meredith was great. She visited Bear as scheduled and communicated about updates in feeding and activity. She interacted with Bear and he seemed to have overcome his shyness with strangers. I appreciated the picture updates during each of the visits as well. I will definitely keep her in mind for future visits.”
About: I’ve been around pets my whole life and I’m super comfortable with all kinds of dogs and cats. I’ve watched playful puppies, easygoing adults, and sweet senior pets who just need a little extra care. I can stick to feeding routines, give potty breaks as often as needed, go on walks, play, and of course give them plenty of love and attention. I’ll treat your pet like they’re my own while you’re away! ❤️ Pet care is a natural part of my daily life. I have open availability, so I’m able to make caring for pets a priority throughout my day. I enjoy structuring my schedule around the pets I’m caring for, making sure they feel safe, happy, and well‑cared for every single day. I like to care for pets the same way I’d want someone to care for mine—with a lot of love, patience, and attention. In a client’s home, I make sure to follow your routine as closely as possible, like feeding times, walks, and any little habits your pet is used to. I keep their space clean, give them plenty of playtime and cuddles, and make sure they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away.

Rachel G.
“Rachel watched my blue Heeler puppy multiple times! She’s the only one I trusted with him. He was very energetic and of course, a nipper when he was young. She made sure to burn his energy and control his biting with his toys. She always rewarded him with tons of love and even stayed over night when we were out of town. He absolutely loves her and trusts her fully. She follows our training techniques and requests, and updated us frequently (I’m an anxious dog mom😂). I highly recommend her! She truly loves animals.”

West Meadows pet parents share their Rover experiences
Anne was amazing! She took such wonderful care of our dogs while we were away. She kept us updated with lots of great pictures and thoughtful notes, which gave us so much peace of mind. It’s clear she truly cares, and we’re so grateful for the love and attention she gave our pups.
Maria took care of Chico and Cali twice a day while I was on vacation for a week, and as always, she did an amazing job. She’s incredibly reliable, friendly, and thoughtful—sending great photos at each visit and making sure the pets were well cared for. It’s always a pleasure having her watch them!
Catalina is so wonderful with my kitties! She’s always playing with them during her visit and they really like her! Which is a shocker because my cats are covid babies and never well socialized. lol would absolutely book her for your pet sitting needs. She gives me such great peace of mind when I have to leave for work trips as I know my boys will be in good hands
I couldn’t be happier with the care my dog Chico and cat Cali received! Jasmine was incredibly punctual and professional, always checking in through the app, sending plenty of photos, and providing detailed daily updates. It was clear from the beginning how much she genuinely cared — she was the first sitter I’ve met who insisted on doing a meet and greet beforehand, which gave me so much peace of mind. Chico and Cali absolutely loved her! She was so sweet and attentive, and it showed in every interaction. I felt completely at ease knowing my fur babies were in such good hands. I will definitely be hiring her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for loving, reliable pet care.
Logan was absolutely awesome! He helped us when we were in a serious dilemma. Our current sitter had to leave town on an emergency and Logan answered a message after midnight in order to accommodate us. My pup is a bit protective and gave Logan a hard time at first, but with his skill set and passion, he was able to calm him down. At that point, he didn’t want him to leave!
We have used Olivia several times and she is incredibly reliable and thoughtful with our pets. She is on time for the booking windows (even though I would be more than ok if she adjusted when she arrived if needed!) and brings them treats or leaves on the TV if there’s a storm going on. I super appreciate and recommend Olivia!
Myranda is wonderful! This was my first time leaving my cat for an extended period of time and Myranda made me feel so comfortable. She took great care of Mila and sent me pictures so I could see her while I was away. I highly recommend Myranda and I am looking forward to using her as a sitter in the future!!
